Hair care...

Happy Monday beauty's :) When I watch commercials on TV about hair care products, they always have models on them who have the most GORGEOUS looking hair! I'm left sitting in my chair, envious of their thick, shiny, bouncy locks. So, how can I get my hair like that? BETTER NUTRITION! Here are the ten best foods for your hair:

1. EGGS- Eggs carry Vitamin B which helps encourage hair growth and also renews hair follicles to create thicker, fuller locks. A lack of this in your diet can cause hair to be dry and brittle, making hair easily breakable. Eggs also help to stimulate and contribute to your scalp's overall health, which can help hair grow faster and longer :)

2. DARK GREEN VEGGIES -These dark green veggies are full with vitamin A and C, which help to create a natural scalp oil that works as a hair conditioner to pump vital and necessary oils into our hair to stimulate growth and renewal. 

3. STRAWBERRIES - Vitamin C rich fruits like strawberries help your body absorb iron, which is fundamental for healthy hair and maximum growth. Too little of this vitamin will make hair dry and weak.

4. NUTS - Like eggs, nuts are full of biotin, which contributes to healthy, beautiful hair. Peanuts, almonds and macadamias are all great dietary options for restoring hair’s natural oils and shine.

5. OYSTERS - Oysters are rich in zinc, which helps to stimulate and aid hair in follicle renewal.

6. SALMON - When it comes to a food that packs a beauty punch, nothing has been quite as effective as salmon. This high-quality protein source is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, which help to support scalp health and lustrous shine.

7. BEANS - Beans are an excellent source of iron protein, which packs powerful nutrients to nourish your hair with. Specifically, lentils are high in iron and folate to create strong, luscious locks and banish hair loss.

8. SWEET POTATO - Sweet potato contains beta-carotene, which your body produces into vitamin A that aids in the fight against dandruff. 

9. KALE - This super food, much like the sweet potato is packed with beta-carotene and is key to maintaining a healthy and well-hydrated scalp to avoid brittle hair and dandruff.

10. RED MEAT - Adding more iron into your diet in the form of lean red meat can help to re-grow hair making hair super long and strong. If you’re suffering from hair loss or thinning hair check your diet, as iron-deficiency is a common problem when it comes to hair growth.
